Qi Lei raised his brows and very knowingly handed his chopsticks to her. “What did Lan Xiu treat you to? You look like you’re the reincarnation of a hungry ghost. I thought you didn’t like noodles.”

She accepted it very uncourteously and ate the fried egg, then returned the chopsticks. “Am I eating noodles right? But to tell the truth, your noodle cooking skills are really getting better and better.”

“Of course! As long I set my mind to learning something, I’ll ace it.” Qi Lei accepted the chopsticks with confidence and continued to eat heartily.

Dongfang Liuyun paused and took over the napkin he handed to wipe her mouth, then she agreed, “I do agree with you. All skills are learned from ground zero, and it’s good to learn more.”

“Mmm? What’s this?” When Dongfang Liuyun tossed the napkin into the bin beside her, her gaze brushed past the table and was attracted by a flash of red. She quickly picked it up.

It was a red invitation.

Qi Lei squinted and swallowed his food before slowly replying, “It’s an invitation from the Jin family. I think it’s an invitation for the young master of the Jin family’s engagement to Dongfang Rouer of the Dongfang family. It’s happening the day after tomorrow,” Qi Lei said quite nonchalantly since he did not have a very meaningful engagement with those people.

Usually, he would occasionally b.u.mp into them at large-scale business event banquets, so when they sent the invitation, Yang Sheng was surprised too. However, when he thought about the recent South River Project, he seemed to have understood something.

As Dongfang Liuyun fixed her eyes on the invitation in hand, her eyes started to darken. Her gaze flickered, and Qi Lei could sense something out of the ordinary. He looked at her from the side and quickly caught her reaction.

After he thought about it for a moment, he was about to ask something but did not in the end. He just gathered his gaze and lowered his head to continue eating his noodles…

Following a pause, Dongfang Liuyun kept the invitation away and put it back without saying anything.

Qi Lei swiftly finished the noodles in his bowl and pushed the bowl aside before he wiped his mouth in satisfaction and drank his flower tea before continuing to watch television.

Dongfang Liuyun naturally accepted her loss and quietly kept the bowls and chopsticks away.

When night fell, it was pitch-dark outside. Unlike the cloudless starry sky from a few days ago, the weather forecast said that it would be a rainy week. There were already typhoons in the coastal areas, and right now the winds were quite strong outside, causing the curtains to swoosh away.

After Qi Lei showered he got into bed while Dongfang Liuyun went to the bathroom after she tidied her things up.

He reached out to take a book from the side as usual when he saw the poker cards. It was the deck of poker cards that Dongfang Liuyun had pulled out earlier.

It was a special deck with golden backing. The drawings on them seemed to be sand art and they looked unique. Earlier, he had scrutinized it closer and noticed that it was the kind of cards that were wear-resistant.

He examined it for a bit, then began to lay them out to play by himself.

Suddenly, Dongfang Liuyun’s voice was heard. “I got someone to make this especially for me. It was a sand art theme this time around, and it’s a present for you. What do you think?”

Qi Lei then looked up towards the sound of the voice, and indeed, he saw her walk out of the bathroom with her messy hair. She lowered the temperature of the room with the remote control while her beige sleeping gown suited her very well. Then, she combed her hair with her back to him.

It was then that he noticed how long her hair was that it reached her waist.

Qi Lei watched her for quite a while, then he lowered his gaze and looked at the cards in his hand. He played around with it before smiling to say, “Not bad, but are you just going to just dismiss me like that?”

She did not even look at him before she answered, “Be grateful. Stingy people like me rarely give anyone gifts.”

He carefully kept the cards away and put them into the drawer beside him before he took out an exquisite gift box. After he examined it, Dongfang Liuyun turned around to look at him too.

“Come here!”

Qi Lei looked up at her with a hand reaching out towards her.

As Dongfang Liuyun looked at the gift box in his hand, she seemed to understand something. She thought about it, then walked over and sat down beside him.

“Is it ready?” she asked calmly.

“Naturally, the model existed. It just needed a little bit more work. Here, try it on.”

He opened the gift box and quickly took out the ring. He held her hand to slide it onto her ring finger. Finally, he looked at it and felt extremely satisfied, but he saw that her gaze was calm and cautious. “You have to think it through now. Once you put this on, you’ve truly become a married woman now.”

Upon hearing that, she only rolled her eyes at him and said, “When we signed our names on the papers, you became someone’s husband, and I, Dongfang Liuyun, also became a married woman. That’s a fact now.”

When she said that, Qi Lei was too lazy to speak more as he put on the ring properly before handing her his and then held out his fingers towards her.

Dongfang Liuyun accepted it and calmly helped him put it on. “Now, it really feels like we’re married.”

Qi Lei looked at the flickering circle of light on his ring finger and smiled thoughtfully. “The world has lost another Prince Charming and Husband of the People. Many women must be in despair!”

When she heard that, a faint smile flashed on her lips as she turned to look at him. She saw that his handsome face contained faint joy and happiness. She felt as if her mood had been infected by his, especially when her eyes met his profound gaze…

She paused and looked deeply into his eyes while Qi Lei let her examine him.

The air suddenly froze, and the swaying curtains were swooshing, making the entire bedroom seem even quieter. Only the temperature in the bedroom seemed to be rising.

The husband and wife stared at each other like that for quite a while, and the smile on Dongfang Liuyun’s face became even more evident. After a while, she reached out slowly and the sparks on the ring swayed, gently reflecting on his handsome side profile. With her soft touch, he felt something stir within him.

She held his face gently and then leaned forward to close the distance between them. He could even clearly smell the faint fragrance on her, immediately inciting the impulse in his blood.
